Derby And King George Hero Adayar Returns At Doncaster

Adayar | The Jockey Club

Godolphin's 2021 G1 Derby and G1 King George VI And Queen Elizabeth S. hero Adayar (Ire) (Frankel {GB}) has been entered in the 10-furlong Hilton Garden Inn Conditions S. at Doncaster on Sept. 8. After taking the King George last June, the bay was fourth in the G1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe in October, and dropped to fifth in Ascot's G1 Champion S. on QIPCO British Champions Day on Oct. 16.

The 4-year-old's 2022 campaign has not been straightforward, however. Adayar had been due to make his 2022 bow in the G1 Coronation Cup at Epsom, but then was re-routed to Royal Ascot. That race appearance did not pan out either, and the G1 Eclipse S. was touted as his new starting point, before being ruled out.

Next Thursday's conditions race will be his 4-year-old bow. The 10-furlong race has 10 entered, including fellow Charlie Appleby trainees Dhahabi (Ire) (Frankel {GB}), Ottoman Fleet (GB) (Sea The Stars {Ire}), and Warren Point (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}).
